Is it possible to install an assembly on a remote machine's GAC? I don't see
an option for it using gacutil.exe

re: Installing assembly on remote machine


hi,

Yes its possible to istalled an assembly to a remote machine but only with
Windows Installer 2.0.
CacUtil is used only during developement purpose but not for deployement.

Fro deploying an assembly on the remote machine you need to build an msi
project that will first detect if the correct framework is installed and then
instlled your aseembly.

..Net framework runtime dotnetfx.exe can be installed separatly

Regards
serge

re: Installing assembly on remote machine


I don't use Windows Installer in this particular case. Is there a way of
installing remotely without Windows Installer?

re: Installing assembly on remote machine


No its the only way to deploy an assembly in the gac for runtime.
On solution of course would be also to install all your developement
environemtn on the remote machine but then you are not deploying.

re: Installing assembly on remote machine


Thanks for the feedback.

Its a shame that remote deployment is not supported. Is it possible to
harness the same APIs that Windows Installer uses to install remotely?
